SPACE 2018 took place from 11 to 14 September at Parc-Expo Rennes exhibition centre. Attendance levels were high, the weather was superb and once more, the quality of the show was excellent.
The four-day event underlined the show's international standing. It also served to highlight the strength of the agricultural industry in Northwest France. This month, the region played host to both the "Terre de Jim" French Young Farmers show and the SPACE exhibition, one of the leading international events for livestock professionals.
This year was the 32nd time that SPACE opened its doors to the industry. This time around, there were 1,410 exhibitors from 42 different countries and a total of 108,347 delegates from 121 countries around the world.
In terms of French visitor numbers, there was a slight downturn on last year (-6.65%), but all things considered, attendance was satisfactory. This small dip was mainly due to the fact that corn silage harvesting took place a fortnight earlier than expected this year and therefore clashed with the show. International attendance was up slightly (by 2.8%), showing how SPACE has unique international appeal, despite the market being particularly competitive this year.
